Project Familiarization

Load context about dancing-bear at session start.

When to Use

• Session start — run before responding to first request
• Context refresh — when you need to re-orient
• Feature discovery — exploring what tools are available

Run Familiarize

./bin/llm familiar --stdout

This returns a YAML capsule covering:

• Skip paths and heavy files to avoid
• Key CLIs and agentic schema pointers
• Familiarization contract (read-only rules)

Deep Dive (On-Demand Only)

Load these only when the task requires deeper understanding:

| File | When to Load | |------|-------------| | .llm/CONTEXT.md | Architecture questions, system overview | | .llm/MIGRATION_STATE.md | In-flight work, current status | | .llm/PATTERNS.md | Implementing features, copy-paste templates | | .llm/FAMILIARIZE_CORE.md | Familiarization contract details |

Generate on demand (never preload):

./bin/llm domain-map --stdout   # directory structure deep dive

Tool Discovery

For CLI capabilities, use agentic schemas (never --help):

./bin/<assistant> --agentic --agentic-format yaml --agentic-compact

Primary surfaces: mail-assistant, calendar-assistant, schedule-assistant, phone-assistant. Load only the wrapper(s) relevant to the current task.

After Familiarize

You should know:

• What the project does (unified personal-workflow CLIs: mail, calendar, schedule, phone, WhatsApp)
• How to run CLIs (./bin/<assistant> <subcommand> <flags>)
• Where to find patterns (.llm/PATTERNS.md)
• Paths to skip (.venv/, .git/, .cache/, maker/, _disasm/, out/, _out/, backups/)
• Available skills (/familiarize, /dancing-bear-rules, etc.)
